Just an update on how “Restoring the Acadian Forest” is going. Just to be clear, this is not trying to get the woodlot to look exactly like it was 400 years ago.

Since the first problem would be... I don’t have a clue what it looked like 400 years ago. I have asked the missus, but unfortunately her memory is showing a lot of 400 year old wear and tear. And secondly, there is no sound reason to believe that the woodlot would not have evolved to something at least slightly different over that time period even without human intervention.

So... lots of fir are getting cut down, mostly in areas where they are competing with other more desirable trees such as white pine, yellow birch, oak, cedar, white ash and red spruce.

We have found one mature sugar maple and one seedling and the hunt continues to find and protect more. And we are still searching for any signs of a mature beech or hemlock tree, which we would expect to find on the property but haven’t.

Road work is stopped for the winter other than maybe hauling some more gravel to fix up some wet spots, But, I am hoping to do at least some more cutting throughout the winter if the weather cooperates.

Driving around a few weeks ago I spied a couple of spots not too far from home with ugly, ugly clearcuts and I wondered if those of you who may own woodlots understand that there may be sound alternatives. Several studies have shown that you can do several partial cuts over

40 to 50 years, haul out more wood than by clearcutting, and still have a woodlot full of trees. One research project suggested that it takes 110 years for the forest to recover from a clearcut, and 220 years for your neighbours to forgive you for what you have done.

Instead of letting the big forestry companies or other private operators, who may be out to empty your woodlot and fill their pockets, I would strongly suggest that you call the Southern New Brunswick Wood Co-op at 433-9860/1888-762-1555. It costs a whole $5 to join and a great woodlot management plan costs only $200 or so with subsidies and around a $1,000 if the well is dry. You get to decide what your vision for the woodlot is and the plan will show you what you have now and recommend how to get there. They will even manage commercial harvests on your behalf in many cases. Having met a number of the staff, they are great people to deal and work with and your neighbours will love you, and so will the environment.

Save a forest clearcut big nasty forestry companies!!!!!!!!!!!! 0001

ASK THE CHEF CHEESECAKE: ORIGINS & HISTORY Welcome to a new year of Ask the Chef.

I would like to thank all of you who have enjoyed my little stories about food and its origins. I hope I can continue surprising you again this year. In saying that I thought I would start the year off with a topic that really surprised me and hopefully will surprise you too.

Today I am talking about cheesecake.

A treat we all enjoy, there are so many varieties of it, but we still just call it cheesecake. What is cheesecake and where did it come from? How old is cheesecake and who were the first to make it?

Most people believe cheesecake was invented in New York. Probably because one style of cheesecake is called New York cheesecake. But this is not the case.

Are you ready for this? Cheesecake can be dated back to 2000 BC That’s right!

Cheesecake is over 4000 years old. It was the Greeks who are credited with the invention of cheesecake. The oldest known recipe was very basic but still a cake. It read like “pound cheese until soft - add honey and spring wheat flour - heat until one mass - cool and serve.” this was the translation. No units of measurement because there were no units of measurement. The Romans conquered Greece and the cheesecake was one of the spoils of war. They took the recipe and modified it by adding eggs and cooking it under hot rocks. Because of the Roman empire stretched all across Europe, cheesecake went with them and this is how it made its way into France, England, Germany and therefore the rest

of the world.

Cheesecake as we know it today is most often made with cream cheese.

This was started when the recipes came to the new world and farmers were trying to duplicate the cheese making processes of Europe and instead made what we now know of as cream cheese.

This allowed making cheesecake faster and more consistent, in the 1800’s you could not find a restaurant without cheesecake on the menu and this is why they are credited with creating a form of cheesecake known as the New York cheesecake. Creamy baked cheesecake with no additional flavours but topped with a choice of chocolate, strawberries or other topping.

Other parts of America made small variations to the recipe so they did not have to give credit to New York. In Chicago pastry chefs started adding sour cream to the recipe and that is what makes Chicago style cheesecake. In St. Louis, they enjoy a gooey butter cake, which has an additional layer of cake topping on the cheesecake filling.

Even today, all over the world we make cheesecake differently.

Italians use ricotta, German prefer a cottage cheese and the Greeks use a feta or mizithra cheese. In the end they all call it cheesecake.

SUSSEX SHARING CLUB ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

FEBRUARY 9TH

6:30pm at the Sussex Sharing Club

Is there a benefit to wearing two hearing aids opposed to just one?

For most people, if there is hearing loss in both ears, the answer is a definite yes. There are several important reasons to consider wearing two hearing aids versus one hearing aid. They include: Better hearing in noise: you will understand speech and conversation significantly better than if wearing just one The ability to localize sounds: Your brain uses 3 auditory factors to help locate where sounds are coming from. 1) The slight difference in time it takes for a sound to reach each ear, 2) the difference in the loudness of a sound as heard in each ear, and 3) The slight difference in the pitch of a given sound as heard in each ear.

More clarity: If you wear 2 hearing aids, you can reduce the volume on both aids and still hear better and understand more than if you only wore one. This reduces the total volume of sound assaulting your ears- especially in noisy situations.

An added benefit is that you will be able to tolerate louder sounds better with the lower volume setting.

Prevention of auditory derivation: When you wear 2 hearing aids, you stimulate both ears equally.

Some think that the ear with no stimulation may eventually lose its ability to hear and interpret sounds.

Wearing 2 hearing aids provides the stimulation your brain needs in order to preserve and maximize the hearing you still have.

HUMAN RIGHTS FORUM GUESTS December 10th each year is International Human Rights Day. The Hampton John Peters Humphrey Foundation holds an Annual Human Rights Forum in keeping with its mission 'to educate people about human rights'. This year on December 10th the foundation hosted Richard Blaquiere from Woodstock as its guest speaker. Richard is a retired educator and during his teaching years also taught courses in Human Rights Education at St. Thomas University and the University of Maine. It was during his second year of teaching that he and a colleague organized a student trip to Germany the focus being the Holocaust with a day at Dachau.

Coincidentally back home, Malcolm Ross was promoting his newly published book "Web of Deceit", which denied the Holocaust. It was out of those two opposing happenings that he became a committed advocate for Human Rights and Holocaust Education and he has been recognized and honoured many times over for his continuing work on human rights issues.

Richard Blaquiere and Sister Angelina Martz More recently he was Project Coordinator for the building of The Sgt. Mark Gallagher Memorial Vocational School, just unveiled in Haiti. Mark Gallagher was the RCMP officer killed in a devastating earthquake five years ago

while on an educational mission there.

Richard's topic focused on international development in Haiti.

Sister Angelina Martz, a Sister of Charity for over 70 years, was awarded the foundation's Human Rights Award

during the Forum. Sister Angie's activism grew firmly and deeply, over a period of time. Born just before the Depression years in rural Alberta, and seeing out-of-work men coming to her family farm looking for food and shelter during that time had a profound effect on her. Her parent's compassionate response to that need instilled within her a lifelong regard for vulnerable people.

She became a teacher. And it was during her years as an educator in Quebec, Moncton and Saint John, and especially Saint John, that she began to be conscious of the full extent of the demoralizing effect poverty inflicts upon a person and a family. She also learned that the way out of poverty is not through a hand out, but rather a hand up.

Sister Angie's activism reaches beyond Canada's borders through the Canadian Catholic Organization for Development and Peace which led her to help form the Refugee Support Coalition in Saint John in support of refugees from Guatemala and El Salvador who were escaping human rights violations in those countries.

The forum was held at Hampton Middle School and approximately 75 people attended. 3303

POINT OF VIEW by diane McMillan SLIPPERY SLOPES Just when I thought I'd heard (or read) it all, I stumbled upon this headline the other night. “Tobogganing bans: Is the beloved winter pastime too dangerous for your kids?”

The story stated that several Canadian and U.S. cities have begun imposing bans

on tobogganing, because they fear it's simply too dangerous and are worried about lawsuits if someone becomes badly injured on their property.

To a point, I get it. Tobogganing can be dangerous. You're essentially sliding down a hill on a piece of plastic, wood or rubber with a limited ability to steer or stop. When I was growing up, sliding parties were a regular winter activity and

guaranteed fun for everyone. It wasn't uncommon to walk away with some bumps and bruises, but the laughter and fun we shared far outweighed the risks.

According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information, there aren't nearly as many injuries from tobogganing as there are from other popular winter activities like skiing, snowboarding, skating or snowmobiling. Why, then, is tobogganing the one activity to be considered too dangerous?

While I understand the need to be safety conscious, it seems that we're over protecting our kids to the point where common sense isn't required.

This generation, more than any other, has become obsessed with shielding our children from any and all adversity.

It's a natural instinct to want to protect your child – I do it, and I get it. However, what happens when that child grows up? Are they equipped to function in the real world? Are they too scared to challenge themselves for fear that they could get hurt?

The fact is, there is danger all around us. Every time we get behind the wheel, cross the street or board a bus, there are things that could harm us. We'd all love to put our kids in a bubble and shield them from all the bad – forever! The reality is, we can't and sometimes kids just need to be kids.

Instead of protecting them from something that could happen, give them the tools to cope when it does. Fewer and fewer kids actually go outside and play these days. Don't give them another excuse to stay inside with their video games and smart phones. Equip them with a helmet, some common sense and an appreciation for one of winter's best (and inexpensive) outdoor activities.

Happy New Year!

I hope 2015 is a happy, healthy and safe one for you.

FRESH WITH FOOD by dave Wolpin MY BOND WITH SPAGHETTI Today’s article features a secret super food.

It’s the 007 of veggies.

What is this Bond-esque vegetable? It is none other than the recently trendy Spaghetti Squash. One of the best parts of this veggie is its diversity. Yes, it can be baked, boiled, and souped like a regular squash, but it also makes a mean base for any marinara or cheesy topping. It is delicious alongside the traditional beefand-tomato sauce, perfect paired it with a green pesto or can even be turned into a casserole or mac n' cheese.

Spaghetti squash is also a good source of fiber, with 2.2 grams in a one-cup serving.

It also contains beta carotene, which can help improve eye and skin health, maintain a strong immune system, and can help prevent infection.

How does spaghetti squash measure up against wheat pasta? Carbohydrates are your body’s main source of expendable energy. They’re the gasoline to your

engine; however, you don’t want to overdo them either. One cup of cooked pasta contains 42 grams of carbohydrates; on the other hand, spaghetti squash contains 10 grams of carbohydrates per cup. If you are diabetic or following a low-carbohydrate diet, choosing spaghetti squash over pasta can significantly reduce your carbohydrate intake.

In terms of calories, spaghetti squash is significantly lower in calories than traditional pasta. A one-cup serving of cooked spaghetti squash has 42 calories, while one cup of cooked pasta has 221 calories. It proves to be a healthy and delicious alternative to traditional pasta.

Spaghetti squash is so easy to prepare.

Simply cut it in half, scoop the seeds out and roast it in the oven at 350 for about 30 minutes. It also helps to brush the edge with olive oil. The only thing you can do do wrong is overcook it. Since the actual cooking time depends on the size of squash and type of oven, just keep checking it. When ready, you should be able to scrape the squash off the skin with

a fork and it will naturally come apart in spaghetti strands. How sly!

One of my favourites ways to prepare spaghetti squash is to make twice baked mac n' cheese. While the spaghetti squash bakes, I roast loads of garlic and onions in a separate pan until slightly browned.

I also chop a coloured pepper, shiitake mushrooms and a generous pile of either cilantro or basil and set it all aside. When the squash is ready, turn it into spaghetti and add it to a bowl with the peppers, roasted garlic and onions, mushrooms, your choice of herb, fresh ground black pepper and ground cumin to taste. Mix it all together and pour it into a casserole dish. Top with your choice of cheese and chopped Kredl's bacon. Bake for another 30 minutes until brown on top and it will blow you away like 007. 0039 Dave Wolpin Kredl’s Corner Market

DIRECTOR’S NOTES by lee Bolton IT’S NOT EASY BEING COOL It’s not easy being cool. I wasn’t a cool kid, and having reached a “certain age” it seemed unlikely I ever would; that was before I took over programming the Imperial Theatre. Because even without the attitude, I get a lot of cool points for having the inside track on the best, newest and coolest performers in the world.

For extra cool, every January I go to New York for APAP, the largest performing arts marketplace in North America.

For five days, hundreds of agents pitch thousands of artists to buyers like me - from big names to unknowns, from comedy to music to “not sure what that is.” Best shopping trip ever!

Imperial’s first show of 2015 was an APAP discovery. Maripat Donovan’s Late Night Catechism shows are a series of partially-improvised, audienceinteractive comic plays featuring “Sister” - a funny nun portrayed by a cadre of actresses who combine comedy skill with extensive knowledge of Roman Catholicism. She’s been to Imperial four times and this January 24th it’s Sister Strikes Back, a chance for all of us to be reminded that, “Sometimes we feel guilty because we ARE guilty.”

Nothing quite raises one’s cool quotient like being able to say, “I saw them when.” I’m expecting to get that chance someday with Ten Strings and a Goat Skin. These three young lads from PEI are already making waves as they embrace “trad” in a way that is so cool you just know they are going places.

Starting with the Imperial on February 6.

The other great thing about getting Ten Strings to the Imperial “when” is that they’re open to anything. They’re going to show a new generation that trad can be cool with their school show. They are also going to lead a post-show “Onstage Jam Session” so bring your instruments along. Contact the box office at 674-4100 to sign up.

Sometimes being cool means risktaking. When Emily Molnar took over Ballet BC in 2009 the company was nearly bankrupt. Some thought the way out was to scale back and stick to safe repertoire but instead Molnar recruited eighteen strong young dancers with both classical and contemporary training and took

on cutting edge work from high-profile choreographers. Today Ballet BC is a force to be reckoned with internationally.

Having seen the company perform in Vancouver, I desperately wanted to share them with Saint John - but it almost didn’t happen. Travel, schedules and most of all budget made it look impossible. They were going to tour the East Coast and pass us by. At the last possible moment I

decided I couldn’t live with that and got on the phone. They are here on February 13.

All in all, pretty cool. (SG) 0030

Making Sense of it All As a newly bereaved individual, your life will not be the same again.

The person who coined the phrase “time heals” could not possibly have lived through the devastation of the death of your loved one.

Time will not take away your memories of your life together, or the love that you shared, or the fact that you wish things could be different. Time will, however, allow you to move through the intense emotional pain of grief, and time will move you forward in your search to find meaning. Time does allow you to redefine the magnitude of your loss and move you forward in your search to make sense of something that, at this moment, does not make sense at all. Understand that the search to find meaning after a devastating loss is a natural and healthy part of the grief journey.

It takes courage, inner strength, the love of family and friends and the special memories of your loved one to journey through grief and into healing.

Have faith in yourself that, in time, you will move through your devastating loss…

HAMPTON-PIGGS PEAK NEWS One of the key moments in the history of the Hampton-Piggs Peak Partnership was the visit to Hampton by Nontokozo Dlamini and John Lovett in the summer of 2008. Those of us who attended the dinner in Hampton heard Nontokozo speak eloquently about life in Swaziland and the challenges she faces. “In front of you… you see an orphan”, she remarked. “I was thirteen years old when I lost my father. I had to take on many responsibilities – making sure the children have food, the children are going to school, they are doing their homework, they are wearing clean clothes. It is not an unusual thing in Swaziland. Half the students at Fundukuwela High find themselves in a similar situation as mine”.

“I am a product of the Hampton-Piggs Peak Partnership. I graduated last November as one of the top students in my school and that was because of the support you gave me… I worked very hard at school. I really did my best. And most of the students at Fundukuwela High that you are supporting are doing

their best. They want to please you. And I know that in giving this to the Swazi people you will get a great reward from God”.

Anyone who heard Nontokozo’s heartfelt speech could not help but be moved by her story. Shortly after she returned to Piggs Peak, I was approached by someone who had the idea of people in Hampton paying individual school fees for young people like Nontokozo.

He wrote a cheque on the spot for one year’s tuition and committed to pay for another four to cover all five years of one student’s high school education.

That person’s name was Dr. John Quinn and from his seed money the Starfish Program was born which now pays annual school fees for over 100 high school students. Sadly, John passed away on January 3 after a courageous five year battle with pancreatic cancer.

The Partnership mourns his loss and our deepest condolences go out to John’s family and loved ones.

John’s professional honours and accomplishments are far too many to mention in this space; but his contribution to the development of the Starfish program should not be overlooked. Ideas and concepts can Donate Your OLD Aid & Receive Towards Your NEW Hearing Aid Purchase*

FAMILY MATTERS by anita hofmann THIS YEAR RESOLVE TO ‘PLAY’ MORE Play is the most common occupation of children. Play is important to their development and wellbeing and for that reason, we as parents should be actively involved in the play of our kids. When playing at home, children and their parents have the freedom to be creative without the unnecessary constraints of reality. When given plenty of opportunity to play at home, school and at organized activities and sports, children can: learn body awareness and self-control; develop social interactions; improve their school performance; develop fine and gross motor skills; improve visual motor processing; increase creativity, concentration and problem solving; increase overall fitness levels; develop language skills; and improve selfconfidence.

There are numerous benefits to play for parents too. When parents promote play with their children they help them to develop critical skills necessary for life. Playing with their children reminds parents of the importance of having fun as a family and the magical never-ending energy of children. Play also allows us to troubleshoot for childhood struggles because for some children appropriate and useful play can be difficult, despite the fact that we think that children should be naturals at it.

Playing with their children gives parents plenty of opportunity to evaluate their children’s: play approach (alone, group, passive, assertive), play skills, preferred play environment (inside, outside), preferred play activities (toys or with other children) and, reasons for play.

To help us determine whether we are promoting PLAY we can use this easy abbreviation. P indicates that PARTICIPATION in activities should be fun. L means that all LEARNING opportunities should incorporate play and enjoyment as well as LIMIT the use of electronics. A is for ACTION ORIENTED activities that make for more memorable play and learning. Y is for choosing play activities that YOU

and the children can do together to enjoy.

For all the reasons mentioned above, play should be a part of a child’s day, every day. Play permits children to practice skills, learn and be creative.

When activities are presented as playful and fun, children will be motivated to continue to explore and rehearse skills.

After all, we all know how difficult it can

be to work or gain a new skill when it isn’t presented in a fun or enjoyable m a n n e r .

Incorporate play each day and have a fun filled New Anita Hofmann Year. 0006 Family Occupational Therapist

We hope to continue supporting Norton Elementary and Portage, since our efforts are greatly appreciated. Shirley Teakles, President Norton WI. 3306

Opportunities to do that are available at the Dr. V.A. Snow Centre Nursing Home. They could use you to help make the lives of the residents better. Some have families who visit regularly but some do not. Some need assistance at meal time. Some might enjoy playing a game.

The Dr. V.A. Snow Centre Nursing Home residents need volunteers for reading, visiting and assisting with recreational activities. Most especially your help is needed at mealtimes – 8:30 to 9:30, 11:30 to 12:30 and 4:30 to 5:30 – any day or time but especially on the weekends. No one is too old or too young to volunteer to make this home the best it can be for the residents.

DONATION TO BREAKFAST PROGRAM A $1,000 cheque was recently presented to Allen Davis, Principal of the Hampton High School, to be used for the High School "good start" breakfast program. Mr. Lutz and his Trivia Night for Charity team from Lutz, Longstaff

and Parrish have won four 1st place finishes and one 2nd place finish in several Rotary Trivia nights and has donated all monies, totalling $4,500, to the high school breakfast program through the years. 3305

THE 72% Seventy two per cent of Canadians living with Alzheimers are woman. They could be your mother, your sister, your grandmother or yourself. Woman also account for seventy per cent of caregivers for people living with Alzheimers.

The risk of dementia doubles every five years after age 65 and the disease can lie dormant for up to 25 years in the brain before symptoms appear. Women’s increased lifespans put them at a greater risk for Alzheimers and dementia.

Right now there are 14,000 New Brunswickers living with some form of dementia, in 20 years this number will be almost double. The Alzheimers society invites all New Brunswickers to visit: alzheimernb.ca to learn about the warning signs of Alzheimers & Dementia which can often go misunderstood or ignored. While there is no cure for Alzheimers, early diagnosis allows for proper treatment and support to let people live as well as possible and start planning for their future needs.

Don’t hestitate access the resources available on: alzheimernb.ca to discover what you need to know. 3311

Happy New Year! Our sincere thanks are extended to the owners and staff of the Hampton Herald; we have been blessed by their generosity in printing our articles for nearly 30 years and if they would allow us to take over the entire publication at this time, there might just be enough room to thank all the wonderful people that made Christmas so special this year for both staff and clients at the Food Basket!

As it is we can simply thank all the businesses; service clubs; Schools; day cares; sports groups; wonderful knitters, individuals and groups; youngsters who donated from their piggy banks and the general public who dug deep and gave generously to those in need. The love that has been shown is, of course, the best manifestation of the spirit of Christmas that could possibly be demonstrated.

Our ‘Day of Distribution’ was greatly enhanced by the excellent work of George and his highly efficient crew that set the hall in order for the event.

The presence of so many fine young men and women from the schools and sports teams meant that our clients were given willing and friendly assistance with their boxes of goodies, escorted to their cars in the balmy air of a most un-winter like day and the filling of the boxes was accomplished in record time

by a happy throng of volunteers who were a joy to work with.

We can only say THANK YOU, from the bottom of our hearts, our clients express their gratitude, their’s would have been a dismal Christmas without your help. God Bless you all.

MUSINGS by debbie hickey TOUCH YOUR TOES? I have recently had the need for physiotherapy because of an odd knot in my back that refused to go away.

This is the second time in a couple of years that I have had a similar issue, the previous one being a “frozen shoulder”.

So, being the curious person that I am (Michael would no doubt say snoopy), I like to understand the how comes and why fors. I have learned that my muscles are very tight, in other words I am not very flexible, which can certainly be a significant factor in such issues. Well dang!

I can well remember as a child my father demonstrating his ability to scratch his ear with his foot. Since Dad was 40 when I was born, he was closing in my current age when he was still able

to perform this trick. And no it wasn’t when he was “lubricated” with alcohol and would be unable to move the next morning after pulling half a dozen muscles! If flexibility is in the genes obviously I did not inherit them from my father.

We all start our lives totally flexible.

We have to be to spend 9 months curled into very limited space! If you watch kids play, they remain very flexible. So what happens to us as we age? Pretty simple, most of us stop moving. We spend our days at a desk, we drove to the office to get to that desk, and we drive home and sit all evening before going to bed. Michael tells me spending a few hours every week stacking wood is the perfect solution. I hate to say it but I suspect he is largely correct that modifying my activity to replace some of my daily walking with activities

involving bending and stretching would be beneficial. After all, my father never had a back problem in his 80 plus years of living, but of course he was much more physically active than I. I don’t plan to attempt scratching my ear with my foot anytime soon, but it seems apparent that I do need to modify my activities to ensure my remaining years are not mobility impaired.

“Take care of your body.

It’s the only place you have to live.” – Jim Rohn. 0002
